Auchi Polytechnic 2025/2026 Second Semester Academic Calendar (Morning Programme)
The management of Auchi Polytechnic has officially published the approved academic calendar for the second semester of the 2025/2026 academic session (morning programme), outlining key academic activities, public holidays, and examination timelines for students.
According to the Academic Affairs Division, the structured calendar is designed to ensure a smooth academic flow, provide adequate preparation time for students, and allow administrative bodies to efficiently process results and coordinate academic activities.
The second semester is set to commence on April 12, 2026, following the conclusion of first semester examinations and students’ vacation from campus. Academic activities will proceed alongside important national holidays such as Workers’ Day, Eid el-Kabir, and Democracy Day, all of which have been factored into the schedule.
One of the highlights of the calendar is the early preparation for examinations, with course work submissions scheduled ahead of time to ensure proper evaluation. The institution has also allocated time for departmental, school, and academic board meetings to review students’ performance and approve results.
Second semester examinations are expected to begin in phases, starting with students in the School of Art & Industrial Design on July 20, 2026, while other students will commence exams on July 27, 2026. The examinations will run through mid-August, after which students will vacate the campus.
The polytechnic emphasized that strict adherence to the calendar is mandatory, as delays in academic activities can affect result processing and subsequent sessions.
